Watching her eldest brother's departing figure, a smile unconsciously crept onto Shen Wan's lips. Shen Ying walked over, saw this, and immediately confronted her, "Third sister is in such a terrible state, how can eldest sister still be smiling?!"
It's ridiculous that she can't even laugh anymore after Shen Rong's accident.
"Isn't it just showing sympathy for Shen Rong? It's not like she can't do it," Shen Wan retorted angrily. "Third Sister was harmed so badly, it's all the fault of those heartless scoundrels who would stop at nothing to achieve their goals. They used such despicable means to harm people, harming Second Sister and now they're going to harm Third Sister. Sooner or later they'll suffer a miserable end and die a horrible death."
As she spoke, Shen Wan's gaze swept lightly over Shen Ying, "Second sister, don't you think so?"
Shen Ying immediately regretted speaking out of turn, but she couldn't bear to see Shen Wan acting as if it were none of her business. Why was it that Shen Wan could evade her schemes time and time again?!
Shen Yingyun clenched her fists tightly beneath her sleeves, her molars even loosening.
Shen Ying had run into him herself, so Shen Wan wasn't going to let her off easily. "Second sister, aren't you worried about third sister? Why aren't you cursing her with me?"
Shen Wan laughed, but her scolding was genuine.
Shen Ying couldn't laugh, nor could she curse.
Shen Wan just stared at her, waiting for her to scold her. Shen Ying was secretly angry, but then she thought that it wasn't her who had harmed her, but Young Master Wu, so she felt at ease and joined in the scolding, "Eldest sister is right. Those who harm Third Sister will never have a good ending."
Shen Wan asked, "Would you like to go visit my third sister together?"
She dares to visit her third sister?!
Is she trying to drive her third sister to her death?!
Shen Ying suppressed the anger that was about to burst forth from her chest and said, "I dare not go when my third sister is in such a state of anger."
“That’s true. When Second Aunt went to visit, Third Aunt told her to get lost. It’s better not to go for now,” Shen Wan nodded.
Shen Ying's face turned green with anger.
After stabbing Shen Ying, Shen Wan, ignoring how angry Shen Ying was, happily took Yin Shuang back to Qinglan Garden.
After returning to the house, she drank a cup of tea, rested for a while, and then began to embroider a belt for Xie Jingyan, also using silver thread.
She embroidered until nightfall.
Seeing that it was getting late and Shen Wan was still busy, Yin Shuang remembered the things Shen Wan had told her before and said, "Miss, tomorrow is the sixth day of the month, the day that Miss Yun was originally supposed to get married. Are you still going to the Yun family tomorrow?"
On the day Yun Mo broke off the engagement, Shen Wan specifically told Yin Shuang that she was to go to the Yun family that day.
Hearing Yinshuang's words, Shen Wan looked up, "It's already the sixth day of the month?"
I've been busy embroidering belts lately; time just flies.
Yinshuang covered her mouth and laughed, "It's fast indeed. In just twelve days, it will be the girl's wedding day."
Thinking about her upcoming marriage to Xie Jingyan, to be honest, even knowing it was a fake marriage, Shen Wan was still a little nervous, even more so than when she married Xie Jingyin in her previous life.
Shen Wan couldn't figure out why she was nervous. It was just a family relationship, there was no reason for her to be nervous.
Shen Wan couldn't figure it out, and subconsciously she didn't dare to think about it too much. The more she thought about it, the more nervous she became. It was better to be confused.
However, she was going to the Yun family tomorrow, so she couldn't stay up late tonight. Shen Wan put down the embroidery frame in her hand.
After making two belts, her needlework speed slowed down considerably. Luckily, Xie Jingyan gave her a day's grace, otherwise she really wouldn't have been able to finish in three days.
After rubbing her sore hands and neck, Shen Wan washed up briefly and went to bed.
I slept well all night.
The next day, Shen Wan woke up feeling refreshed and stretched on the bed.
After breakfast, Shen Wan went to Qinghui Courtyard to pay her respects to the old lady. When she was almost at the entrance of Qinghui Courtyard, a maid came over, curtsied, and said, "The old lady is not feeling well, so she is excused from paying her respects to the young ladies."
The old lady hadn't slept well for several nights because of Shen Ying and Prince Jin's affair. The destruction of Shen Rong was an unprecedented blow to the old lady. It would be a shame if she didn't fall ill, as she had loved Shen Ying and placed high hopes on her.
No need to pay respects, that's good. Shen Wan decisively turned around and walked towards the second gate.
Today is a day off. Shen Jing is at home, and Shen Wan went to the study to deliver the belt first.
Seeing Shen Wan enter, Shen Jing asked, "Do you need to see Father?"
Shen Wan replied, "I've finished embroidering the belt for Father. I was supposed to bring it to him yesterday."
Shen Jing was surprised, "You finished embroidering so quickly, much faster than your mother did when she was alive."
Mentioning her mother, Shen Wan's nose tingled with tears. She missed her mother. It was a pity that God had given her a second chance at life, but she would never see her mother again. Shen Wan choked up and said, "How can I compare to my mother? She has to manage the household affairs and is busy welcoming and seeing off guests, while I don't have to do anything."
Shen Wan presented the belt, and Shen Jing also thought of Yun Shi, her eyes reddening slightly. "The belt is well embroidered, no worse than your mother's."
Just then, a servant announced from outside the door, "My lord, the fourth master has arrived."
Shen Wan had only come to deliver the belt; she still needed to go to the Yun family, so she said, "Father, I need to go to the Yun family. My maternal grandfather fell ill because of my cousin Yun Mo's marriage. I don't know how he is. I need to go and visit him."
Shen Jing never stopped Shen Wan from leaving the manor, especially since Shen Wan was going to the Yun family. Shen Jing said, "Your mother is gone, and your father is always busy. You should take good care of your maternal grandparents on behalf of your mother and father."
Shen Wan nodded repeatedly, curtsied, and withdrew.
As she left, the Fourth Master entered the study. Shen Wan bowed to him before leaving.
As he stepped down the stairs, Chen Jing's voice came, "Fourth brother, you've come at the right time. Wan'er is getting married soon, so please have your wife teach her how to manage household affairs."
Shen Wan felt a lump in her throat. In her previous life, her father was forced to accept the fact that she was going to marry Xie Jingyin. He was very angry with her, but he did not forget that she would be the mistress of the house after marriage. However, in her previous life, he married the second wife, and his teaching was almost the same as not teaching her at all. After she got married, she made a mess of the Prince Jin's mansion. For this, she was often scolded by Empress Song. Later, the Yun family sent a stewardess to her...
Although she no longer needs to study, Shen Wan will study it all over again very seriously because of her father's love.
Upon arriving at the main gate of the Marquis's residence, Shen Wan boarded a carriage and headed straight for the Yun family.
In her past life, the Yun family was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers on this day, and it was as festive as could be. In this life, it is no different from any other day.
Shen Wan took Yin Shuang to Liu Shuang Courtyard. When she saw Shen Wan arrive, Old Madam Yun smiled kindly and invited Shen Wan to sit down next to her, saying, "I was just talking about it with your two aunts, and here you are."
Shen Wan sat down next to Old Madam Yun and said, "I've been busy these past few days and haven't been able to visit you and Grandfather. Is Grandfather feeling any better?"
Madam Yun smiled and said, "I don't know how your maternal grandfather is doing either."
Shen Wan's eyes widened. "How could that be?"
Madam Yun chuckled, "Including today, your maternal grandmother hasn't seen your maternal grandfather for three days. He sent out wedding invitations to a bunch of friends to come to the capital for the wedding banquet, but your cousin's marriage was canceled. In order not to let those friends make a wasted trip, your maternal grandfather accompanied them on a sightseeing tour all over the capital."
Shen Wan asked worriedly, "Can Grandfather's health handle it?"
Madam Yun laughed and said, "Your eldest cousin had the same worry, but when the old master saw so many friends, he was in a good mood and all his illnesses disappeared."
